Why do you write?
●I write for myself. I write in the sake of grief. I write...
The first thing that comes to mind is the urge to release the thoughts from the swirling whirlpool of my mind. When there is so much up there swimming around, being tossed sideways and upwards until you can't distinguish one from the next. Writing them out, one thought at a time, into an organised, concise manner allows my mind to breathe a sigh of relief and feel free once again. No more overcrowding, no more emotions fighting each other. Calm.
After that, I write because there is something satisfying about putting into words onto paper what can be difficult to communicate in conversation. No distraction, no arrogant opposition. Just you, being able to say what you want, need to say. The longer I write like this, the clearer it becomes to me what I truly think, even if I didn't realise it at the start. All of the above leads to a Maddie more sure of herself, of her direction, of her place in society and the world. It gives a confidence, then as the pen goes down a satisfied feeling that everything is 'figured out' and there's a bounce in the step that wasn't there before.
Lastly, the mental stimulation and satisfaction of finding the words and structuring of sentences so that you communicate just so. Whether a pen and paper, it all being done as it comes to you, no editing, or on a laptop and perfecting it so it's exactly as you imagined it. Seeing your words in concrete, not having them float away in a wisp of air the moment someone else speaks. Writing leaves a part of yourself behind, be it for yourself or for others. Something no one can take away.
